Me too!

I was at the Truckin' Nationals at Firebird a few years back. Some guy ripped off a vendor and the vendor gave chase. The crook ran full speed into a low hanging pop up tent which was well anchored to the ground. Picked the guy up off his feet and laid him down flat on his back. There was a nice size strip of flesh hanging from the cross bar of the pop up. So good to see justice being served in real time!!

He didn't belong in the first motorhome. He used the white cloth in his hand to ensure he didn't get any prints on the door when he closed it, and he walked into another motorhome, after checking to see if the coast was clear... He didn't knock when he entered the second motorhome, he didn't call out to ask if anyone was there, he just walked right in.

I can only surmise that he continued his rounds until someone finally took the guy out which is why he is wearing a neck brace in the mug shot.

Just a guess

Nothing like a good immediate ass-whipping to someone who needs it.
Years ago at a swap meet, I saw a guy caught stealing from a vendor who had his small trailer in his area. 2 guys grabbed the thief and hauled him inside the trailer, closed the door behind them, and that trailer was rockin' for a few minutes before the cops got there and hauled the thief away. Apparently the thief repeatedly fell or banged himself around inside for several minutes. Priceless.

There was one on worlds dumbest criminals.Seems the guy walked into an open house.The old guy walked in and asked what he was doing.Well by the time the cops got there the old guy had given him a great a-- whipping.That thief was bloddy all over.My thought is they would have called the coroner in my house.They walk in and they will get carried out.Rocky

I got ripped off at the US nationals one year. I would always change out of my street cloths into my driving suit before a run. So we go to the staging lanes and close our trailer up but didn't lock it. The theif went into my trailer and took my credit cards out of my wallet and put my wallet back into my pants.
When I got the motel that night I noticed them missing. When I called my credit card company they had already turned them off since the criminals had already spent like $5000 at a golf store and others. They knew I wasn't golfer since I always used them for racing purchases.
Luckly both cards were platium cards? and I didn't have to pay anything.
The next day at the track I told NHRA about it and they sent there detectives to talk to me. Said it has happened before and they(thiefs) send runners out right away and use the cards before they are turned off.

So we started locking up everything each time we ran the car.

Guy looks kind of rough in that mugshot!
It's a shame he hurt himself like that

BTW For those who don't frequent the General Section.. Another great story...
